The featured Sports Stud this week is Brady Quinn, backup quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks. He only just signed on as the backup to QB to Russell Wilson on April 11 of this year. The handsome football hottie has previously played for the Kansas City Chiefs, the Cleveland Browns and the Denver Broncos. Prior to that he played college football for Notre Dame. While there, he graduated with dual degrees in political science and finance.

Brady Quinn is 28 years old, 6’3 and 235 lbs… basically what I’m trying to say is, “Hello to you, big boy ;)” He’s been featured in many magazines, including Men’s Health and I’ve included some of those photos below. Enjoy!

For this week’s Sports Stud, I decided to highlight 23 year old (24 in July) Welsh footballer/soccer player, Gareth Bale. Aside from the fact that I find soccer players to be super hot (legs!!), I was inspired to choose a soccer/football player because I myself and some of my friends are starting up a new season this week and I’m pretty excited.

At the moment, Bale plays for English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and the Wales national team as a winger. He’s been a stand-out player over the last few years and has really contributed to the Tottenham’s success domestically and in the Champions League. He lives in London with his high school sweetheart Emma and the two have a daughter together that was born this past October.

Check out his photos below. He’s got beautiful eyes, a great body, and those sexy signature soccer player legs that I love. Enjoy!

Although he is now a retired tennis player, this week I’ve decided to feature the sexy 33-year-old Marat Safin from Russia. During his career, he won two grand slam tournaments and reached the World No. 1 ranking. Although he was known for his hot temper on the court (he holds the record for most broken racquets in a year with 87), he was also known for being hot – LOL.

He started his professional career in 1997 and retired in 2009. Looking back at his career, he is recognized as one of the most talented players of the 90s and 2000′s. His good looks and sexy body (which includes a few tattoos) definitely got him some attention – and still does.

Outside of tennis, in an interview with USA Today he stated, “I’m Russian, but I’m 100% Muslim. All the Muslim people are passionate, stubborn. We have hot blood.” Check out his sexy pictures below!

Whether you’re a pitcher or catcher, I’m sure you’ll find this week’s Sports Stud a treat. As we’re now into Spring, I thought I’d highlight an athlete from a sport we’ll be seeing a lot of over the summer months – baseball. This week’s hottie is 21-year-old Mike Trout who plays MLB (Major League Baseball) for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. He’s so beefy, it’s hard to believe he’s only 21!

Still very early in his career, he’s definitely one to watch. He was named the second-best overall baseball prospect by Baseball America in July 2010 and made ESPN’s Keith Law’s top 100 prospects list in 2011. These are just a couple of the recognitions he’s received in the past couple years.

His nicknames included “Millville Meteor,”"Prince Fish”, MT Hammer and “King Fish 2.0″, in reference to retired Angel Tim Salmon. He’s super sexy so keep your eye out for him on the field. In the meantime, check out some of his photos below!

What defines a Sports Stud? Sometimes it’s the muscles. Sometimes it’s their drop dead good looks. Other times it’s their athletic accomplishments. In certain cases, it’s their courage to stand up for what is right. That’s exactly why I decided to highlight Connor Barwin as this week’s sexy athlete.

When asked, the 26-year-old Philadelphia Eagles outside linebacker has always stood tall as an LGBT ally. Even if he didn’t have a gay brother, I firmly believe he would have the same stance. Check out his response he recently made when someone questioned him if an openly-gay athlete would become a distraction for a team.

“I don’t think it would be selfish. As a heterosexual man, I can’t speak to what it must feel like to be gay in the NFL. I don’t know what somebody goes through. I imagine it’s very hard to go through. So I would support that teammate no matter what.”

“I don’t think it would be a distraction. And even if it was, the NFL has distractions in every locker room. You would work through it like anything else. If somebody had a problem with a teammate being gay, they would realize very quickly that it was something they could get over.” – Connor Barwin

Pretty hot, right? As they say, the sexiest muscle on a man is his brain. So true. Check out a slew of Connor playing on and off the field below. Enjoy. If you have any suggestions for future Sports Stud, please share them in the comments section.

Since I’m filling in for this week’s Sports Stud, I thought I’d put my own spin on things. I decided to think outside the box and pick a personal trainer. That’s athletic enough, right? In my defense, he’s also a professional soccer player. That being said, I couldn’t figure out which league he plays in. Whatever! He’s hot and has a smoking body. Enjoy.

Tal Evans is a 25-year-old Aussie hailing from Canberra. He currently works as a personal trainer at TEAM FITNESS. Check out a few photos I found on his Model Mayhem account and from a recent shoot with photographer Jimmy Walsh. There’s a couple of pics that are just beyond titillating. The nipple pinching one and another where he looks like he’s chaining himself to a bed are too much. Brace yourself for your temperature, among other things, to rise.

This week, I decided to do something totally different and I’ve selected a well-known professional ice dancer (a discipline of figure skating which draws from the world of ballroom dancing) from France named Sylvain Longchambon. He’s super handsome and i thought it was time to choose a different athletic discipline other than the usual soccer or rugby player hotties.

The 32-year old actually was part of the 2011 series 6 cast of Dancing On Ice where he was partnered with soap actress, Jennifer Metcalfe. He withdrew from series 7 after tearing a tendon in his right biceps while training with partner Heidi Range. This year, he is planning on returning to Dancing On Ice and has been partnered with Samia Ghadie who he is now dating. Very cute couple.

Check out his ridiculously sexy pictures below. Hope you’re all having a great weekend!

With the Reebok CrossFit Games 2013 Open currently under way, I figured it’d be a great time to highlight one of the “fittest men on Earth”. People compete in their own cities with a certain workout and scores are entered online (I’m doing it myself!). The highest scores move on to the next round until the finals that take place in LA.

Rich Froning Jr. is 25 years old and is currently featured in Men’s Health magazine in an article titled, “The World’s Fittest Man Will Kick Your Ass.” He is in the only two-time male winner of the Reebok CrossFit Games, a three-stage test of diabolically tough exercises you should not try at home. He can bench 350 pounds, squat 445, do 75 pullups in a row, and run a 5km in 20 minutes. In the article, they show some of the other CrossFit exercises that help build the incredible body that he has that include jump rope double-unders, pistol squats, handstand pushups, and more. It’s effing tough, but I myself and loving it more than any other fitness related thing I’ve ever done.
